Crown FC won’t tarnish record

Crown FC striker, Bode Daniel has said his side will not negotiate on their 100% home record in the ongoing 2012/13 Nigeria National League (NNL).

The Ogbomosho-based side, who are second on the NNL log on 21 points, one point adrift of leaders, Remo Stars, have kept a 100% home record in the 12-week old second tier league.

They will play hosts to Uyo-based side, Akwa Starlets in Sunday’s NNL Matchday 13 at the Soun Stadium in Ogbomoso.

Daniel said his side will allow Akwa Starlets have the full weight of the painful defeat they suffered at the hands of Remo Stars on Matchday 12 at Ijebu-Ode.

“We have so far maintained a 100% home record, we want to wrap up the first stanza of the season on that excellent note and keep it that way till the end of the season. The encounter against Akwa Starlets is our last home game in the first stanza; we don’t want to lose more as a win will take us back to the top of the ladder.

“We’re still aggrieved at the loss to Remo Stars last weekend, we see Akwa Starlets as the appropriate opponents to vent our anger on. So they’re going to pay for the defeat at Remo Stars,” he said to supersport.com.

The five-goal hero said he wants to end the season as top scorer as well as secure promotion to the elite league for his side.

“I’ve scored five goals in the season so far, I intend to up it with two goals against Akwa Starlets. My target is to emerge as the highest goal scorer of the Nigeria National League as well as guide my team to gain promotion to the premier league,” he said.
